You know Tom Hanks lawyers are probably quite litigious when it comes to libel.

Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.

I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin.

But Tom Hanks once refunded a couple the money for their cinema tickets when he ran into them at a petrol station and overheard them complaining about a film they went to watch because he was in it.

Ive always wondered why Adidas is such a big hit with the Russians. What gives?

most russians we deal with dress like the guy on the left even if they is all trying a bit too hard to channel alex kovas from rocknrolla

 

 

am pretty sure the russian track suit thing died out in the 90s save for with the street punk/gangsta crowd.  even so, is our understanding that when the wall fell and russians sudden had access to western goods, buying stuff with recognizable labels became an instant measure o' status.  unfortunate, most russians at the time didn't have much cash.  addidas track suits were cheap but also instant recognizable as brand name.  

 

HA! Good Fun!

 

ps am admitting we ain't been back to russia for many years, but such is the explanation we got from russian 'business' folks we deal with.

To help people laugh, I can remember going with the family to Russia back around. oh, '91-93ish somewhen. The folks left the cruise ship to spend a day in Odessa and later Yalta.. and because of the time, most of us went out in nike trainers and shell suits.  Definitely stood out to the locals as capitalist westerners....

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*
